Ahh, the heady days of 0.99 patchfiles
 
Now, not all projects can be as refined as Linux.  Before the final 1.0
release, we went through fifteen 0.99 patchfiles, and pl14 alone went
through subreleases 'a' through 'z'. Now _that_ is a release process.

Not to mention the odd-ball releases, like 0.96c+

Sadly, in this day and age of RPM's etc, we have silly limitations, and
I cannot call this release '0.99pl5a or some such awe-inspiring name
just because "rpmbuild" is such a party pooper.  So it's just 0.99.1.

Oh well.  Aspiring to such greatness as the Linux release numbering is
hubris anyway.  You can attain such perfection only once in your life.
